LAW ENFORCEMENT - E. T • V. TRAINING PROGRAM

"Basic Criminal Law" - Part I

Review and Study Workbook

INSTRUCTIONS: This review and study workbook is designed to be of use both during the group discussion period, which

follows a television program, and by you at home on your own.

It should serve as 1) an effective aid to the Group Discussion Leader and to you for engaging in group discussion after you have viewed a TV program; also it should serve as 2) a means for you to privately check and see how well you learned the points covered in the TV lesson, and 3) an opportunity for you to review the material on your own, at home, to be sure that you have gotten all out of the TV program and the group discussion that you want to.

Here is how the Study Workbook is to be used.

FOR THE GROUP DISCUSSION PERIOD •

For the group discussion periods which follow the television programs, the discussion leader will provide you with general and specific directions. Just be sure that you write the answers he provides you in the space between the dashed 1inl'!_~ and .£2!. in the blank spaces of the text items themselves. You will see what is meant when you get into the workbook proper.

FOR HOME REVIEW AND STUDY

Use the Workbook for review and study on your own as follows:

Starting before you get to the first item, cover the printed text of the workbook with a blank sheet of paper. Slide the blank paper down until you come to a triple asterik or star (***). -- Read the text material above the stars until you come to a numbered blank.

Fill in the blank with the word, words, or sentence which is missing to make the sentence read correctly •

After you have filled in all of the blanks which are contained in an item, slide the blank paper down from its position even with the stars just far enough·to reveal the numbered correct answer or answers. These will be the answers which you filled in during the group discussion period. -- The numbers on these answers will correspond to the numbered blank or blanks which you have just filled in at home.

Next, slide the blank p~per down past the printed material of the following item until you come to the next set of three stars. Stop the blank paper there so as not to reveal the answers. Answer the item by filling the blanks. -- Proceed throughout the Workbook as just described.

By using tbis method at home, you can poth check to see how well you have learned the content of the associated television program and you can find out immediately, item by item, whether the answer you have just given iA correct.

Even after the workbook has been filled in, both in the blanks contained in the text and between the dashed lines, it provides an excellent means for review.

AN EXAMPLE OF HOW TO USE THE WORKBqOK AT HOME IS AS FOLLOWS:

*** (Throughout the Workbook, the three) stars indicitte that you should not slide your blank paper farther dOlNn until you have given your answer or answers by filling in all the blanks in the item -- after you have written your answer (s), slide thel blank paper on down to reveal the answer(s).)

-------------------------------------'------------------------------------------Answer: (1) The correct offense+ (see footnote at bottom of page)

Note: Although the answer is printed in on this page of examples, ordinarily this page would not contain the answer until you write it in during the group discussion period.

----- .. _------------------------------------------------------------------------As another example, an item mi.ght call for more than one answer:

(Now, slide the blank paper down past the next item, stopping when you ('nme to the three stars, and proceed, as above)

Every criminal offense, whether burglary, housebreaking, malicious, or any (2) has (3) elements which make up that offense.

Another way of saying the same thing is that if (11) ____ or more of

the elements is missing, than a burglary has not occurred (even though a

related offense, such as housebreaking, may be involved.)

Answer: (11)

When the law speaks of a "breaking", it does/does not (12)

mean that there must be a violent tearing open or breaking down of a door or

window, such as by knocking a glass out with a crow bar.

Answer: (12)

The general rule covering "breaking" is that there must be a breaking, removing, or putting aside of some material which constitutes a part of a dwelling house and which is relied on as a means of security against intrusion. If any force at all, however slight, is employed to effect an entrance through any place of ingress, whether that place is upen, partly open, or closed, there is a breaking according to the law,

With this general principle in mind, answer the following two items:

If a person enters ar~ open window, that is/is not (13) a breaking.
